OTHER FUNCTIONS

■ Tone scan

The transceiver can detect the subaudible tone frequency
and DTCS code in a received signal. By monitoring a signal
that is being transmitted on a repeater input frequency, you
can determine the tone frequency required to access the re-
peater.
q Set the desired frequency or memory channel to be
checked for a tone frequency or DTCS code.
w Push and hold [TONE](7) for 1 sec. several times to ac-
tivate the repeater tone, tone squelch or DTCS squelch.
(TONE, TSQL or DTCS)
• Rotating [DIAL] while pushing and holding [TONE](7) also se-
lects the tone functions.
e Push and hold [T.SCAN](.) for 1 sec. to start the tone
scan.
• To change the scanning direction, rotate [DIAL].
r When the tone frequency or DTCS code is decoded, the
set mode contents are programmed with the frequency or
code.
• The tone scan pauses for the set period in scan pause timer
(p. 108) when a tone frequency or DTCS code is detected.
• The decoded tone frequency is used for the repeater tone fre-
quency when the tone squelch is OFF.
• The decoded tone frequency is used for the tone squelch fre-
quency (CTCSS TONE) when the tone squelch is ON.
• The decoded DTCS code is used for the DTCS code when the
DTCS squelch is ON.

The decimal point is blinking while
tone scanning.
t Push [VFO] to stop the scan.
• If the scan is cancelled before the transceiver detects the tone
or code, the set mode contents are not changed.
• The detected tone is used for temporary operation only. The
stored tone setting in memory or call channel won't be changed.
NOTE: Tone frequency is over-written automatically when it cor-
responds with the scanning tone frequency in tone squelch mode.
However, it is not over-written in memory or call channel mode.
